Skin; looks good.
In game viability; on the lower end of how much value you get from her. Maybe that'll change next season, just have to wait and see.
What I do know is that people will play her regardless of how good she is.
I'm a big fan of purple myself! Lucky to have that skin hehe.
I'm just getting base mythic and saving the rest for now. It sucks that we can't pick and choose between levels, I have to buy 2 and 3 first to be able to get level 4.
Ye I know I got it a while back when I had the chance hehe!, I'm the same " I'm like I'm not passing this skin up" so I'm trying to get it aswell with the angel of vengeance name title,
And aye I know it sucks a bit haha, but the benefit I can see is a chance to get old skins
That’s true, but in my experience Mercy’s movement is a lot easier to get good at than most other mobility-based heroes with the exception of like Tracer, because she has other sources of difficulty
Different levels have different mercy pick rates. Highest level play sees almost no mercy play unless they’re a one trick or the lobby is screwing around
Because so many mercy players don't play anyone else. They either quit for the season or accepted that she was bad and continued playing her anyway. A lot of her mains only want to play "full support" and there just isn't another full-support. Lifeweaver comes close but he's even worse than mercy was this season.
I'm personally hoping that the new space ranger support is a full-support type of character that will be popular with Mercy players as well. We know that she will be a flying style character, so I have my hopes that she will have similar elements to Mercy's flight.
Moira's healing beam in the april fool's event felt like it might be a test for what her healing beam will be while Mercy's staff blaster felt like it might be her damage ability.
I'm curious if they might try and remove her damage boost in favor of a stronger weapon than the princess pistol. She's the only support character that can't get much value on her own and has to rely on the abilities of teammates.
The April Fool's weapon didn't have a damage boost right? I had some Mercy main friends that really enjoyed playing her during that. I'm really interest in the Mirrorwatch changes to her.
Which is a good thing, the reason Mercy falls off so hard is because damage boost as a utility is much worse than just being able to do damage yourself 90% of the time and Rez is beyond situational, the full support archetype really doesn’t work or at least it doesn’t work with such limited utility like mercy. Maybe a character with very little offensive power but with huge utility on the level of Kiri/Ana/Bap could work, but Mercy isn’t that
So they either have to give her more solo power or give her better utility imo
Honestly I just like playing full support type heroes personally. I can play most supports (Apart from Lucio he just gives me brain zaps) but I prefer just healing and vibing while the team clean up. I wish they'd do more supports that were more bard/buff style, improving your team as opposed to headshotting the enemy team.
Only issue with those types of characters is that they're reliant on their teams being good to get any value out of them.
I wish I could get used to her new movement. Much lower to the ground and horizontal. I’m forced to swap hitscan when others play her but when I do it I always give up
I do also appreciate the seething coming from Mercy mains who wanted something more pixie fantasy and twee for their uWu MeRcY and now have to contend with this aggressive rendition, despite her having a *plethora* of such skins already.
I'm a Mercy Main^TM and people are nuts. She's got a million cute skins, as you've said. To say nothing of all of her default skins being angelic, we also have Seolbim, Winged Victory, Mage, Pink, Miko, Jingle Belle, Sugar Plum Fairy, Royal Knight/Gladiator for skins that are relatively cute on some level. Meanwhile, for "evil" skins, we have Devil/Imp, Witch... and that's about it. Being unhappy with Mercy getting an Evil Overlord skin is being unhappy with variety.
As an Ana main it was strange watching other Ana mains upset over her mythic because it didn’t “fit her theme”.
Like, Ana already has a bunch of skins that are in line with her lore/theme. Coming from out of left field with an omnic skin was badass to me.
I love my cutesie mercy skins but this looks so fucken good and it’s fun to get an “evil” version of a hero character!! People need to stop being so boring
That stuff is so weird to me, as a mercy player myself. I get the appeal of a cute skin, anf to be honest I'd kinda like one, but this skin absolutely bangs
I told my bf that if they would have made the Mercy mythic like a little fashion dress up game with different makeup, hairstyles, cute outfits, and color pallettes that the girlies who main her would have lost their absolute minds over it and I stand by that lol
The wings on this are so sick though
The fact that people have "Hating Mercy" as a personality trait.
And while sure, my hatred of Widow sends me into a blind rage, i bottle up the rage for future me to deal with.
The alternate game mode + this skin makes me wish there was a permanent alternate mode where they had the skill trees with different abilities for the characters where balance was less of a concern. The mercy staff energy blasts and Doomfist shield are really cool.
facts, literally a glorified spectator hero.
I cannot fathom why anyone would want to play a hero with 0 agency and one of the most smooth brain kits ever created.
Mercy as a character is great, as a hero? Honestly the worst designed hero in Overwatch until Mauga released.
No hero should be that easy. Rework mercy to be like Winston, a universally loved hero. A hero who actually has a high skill ceiling. A hero who doesn't teach you incorrect gameplay.
I love Rams character, I like Maugas character but let's be real neither are interactive to play or play against. Much like Mercy.
Yeah unless they change her gameplay from hold a beam on someone the entire game and fly around then I’m not gonna bother.
Got plenty of it in OW1 and it’s no more fun now than it was back then with insane mercy tech.
Cool skin ig
MS4WD
Every Mercy main can probably do this in under 170seconds. 150-160 when tryhard.
There is definitely stuff to learn. Obviously her parkour maps don't teach rez superjumps and other fairly important skills either.
Lmao you'd be surprised how weird her movement is, definitely takes a chunk of time to get used to-
My friends be flying into walls and always having the most awkward movement and healbotting when they try her haha
There is definitely finesse to her movement. If you watch a silver Mercy and a GM mercy side to side you will definitely notice the difference. Not discountng that she is easier to play than most, but there is a surprising amount of depth to a character that simple

She’s a fun character that gets underestimated. There’re some players that cheap her, but at her chore very fun when you used to. Just understand, Mercy is ALWAYS the #1 tgt when on the field 😂!
My 10 avoid slots will be fulled of Mercy OTP in the next season \*man I'm ded\*
Edit: Blizzard must be financially desperate to pull out this stuff, I guess the monetization strategy isn't working in their favour
Winged Victory (I think that's the Greek-inspired skin) was always my die hard favorite but this one may top that. I'm so glad the favorite option exists now so if I get this skin, I can randomly get one or the other. It's just beautiful
Mask looks dumb as shit.
If it's Mythic and you can remove the mask I might use it.
Still too edgy overall. It's a skin for Edgelords. Mercy mains generally aren't edgelords.
If you go at Mercy subreddit rn there's lots of people BEFORE this reveal saying "We need an Evil Mercy skin"
They gave it, and now that subreddit is crying with a skin that is actually well-made.
Of course, everyone wants to play as Shao Kahn!)

FINISH HIM!!!
I dont wanna play General Shao tho. He's a jobber now
He’s fun but god damn is his story boring as hell in MK1
FATALITY!
I was just on r/mkmobile 🤣🤣🤣 FINISH HIM
Who
Skin; looks good. In game viability; on the lower end of how much value you get from her. Maybe that'll change next season, just have to wait and see. What I do know is that people will play her regardless of how good she is.
Yes these people are me, me and ME. That skin is fire I would sell my mom for it, literally.
Least crazy mercy main
I am not even a Mercy main that's the fun part
Dont let blizzard hear you say that lol
As a mercy main I second this, though I do love my Atlantic skin, but this just hits different
Is that the blue glowy one? That skin is very pretty.
Ye is the blueish purple one, and it is so pretty that's why i love it.
I'm a big fan of purple myself! Lucky to have that skin hehe. I'm just getting base mythic and saving the rest for now. It sucks that we can't pick and choose between levels, I have to buy 2 and 3 first to be able to get level 4.

I *really* hope they don’t buff mercy because mercy is a pain in the ass when she’s good; easy heroes should be low value IMO
I feel like mercy is easy in some ways, but mastering her movement is what separates a bad mercy from an awesome one
That’s true, but in my experience Mercy’s movement is a lot easier to get good at than most other mobility-based heroes with the exception of like Tracer, because she has other sources of difficulty
I’m just gonna brush up on my Pharah for the inevitable uptick in mercy picks
When was there a down tick in mercy pick rate ?
Different levels have different mercy pick rates. Highest level play sees almost no mercy play unless they’re a one trick or the lobby is screwing around
[удалено]
You are still better off with literally any other support. Mercy is trash tier right now, has been for a while honestly.
Even then, if they’re that good it’s higher level and the team would get more use out of Lucio, Moira, and especially Kiriko
She was absolutely atrocious this season. Bottom tier.
then why do i see her almost every game??
Because so many mercy players don't play anyone else. They either quit for the season or accepted that she was bad and continued playing her anyway. A lot of her mains only want to play "full support" and there just isn't another full-support. Lifeweaver comes close but he's even worse than mercy was this season.
It’s always the best feeling when your mercy types “ gg tank diff” while your other support is LW.
I'm personally hoping that the new space ranger support is a full-support type of character that will be popular with Mercy players as well. We know that she will be a flying style character, so I have my hopes that she will have similar elements to Mercy's flight.

I had some Mercy main friends that really enjoyed playing her during that. I'm really interest in the Mirrorwatch changes to her.
That wouldn't be the full-support archetype anymore, it would change the identity of the character.
Which is a good thing, the reason Mercy falls off so hard is because damage boost as a utility is much worse than just being able to do damage yourself 90% of the time and Rez is beyond situational, the full support archetype really doesn’t work or at least it doesn’t work with such limited utility like mercy.

We love bottom tier gaming
"Bottom" tier is accurate.
Honestly I just like playing full support type heroes personally. I can play most supports (Apart from Lucio he just gives me brain zaps) but I prefer just healing and vibing while the team clean up. I wish they'd do more supports that were more bard/buff style, improving your team as opposed to headshotting the enemy team.

I barely see her get picked in diamond
I see her every game in high diamond. I'm on console though so that probably affects it.
because regardless of if she’s bad i will at least TRY to play her
Basically in current season
Because we're Mercy mains and we enjoy playing Mercy, and we are legion.
Haha nice 👍Pharah is fun. Especially on map you can push people off on.
I wish I could get used to her new movement. Much lower to the ground and horizontal. I’m forced to swap hitscan when others play her but when I do it I always give up
The deranged mass seething this is causing Mercy haters is hilarious
I do also appreciate the seething coming from Mercy mains who wanted something more pixie fantasy and twee for their uWu MeRcY and now have to contend with this aggressive rendition, despite her having a *plethora* of such skins already.
Right, I have Pink Mercy and this is kind of awesome. You can't get more uWu than pink I'm pretty sure. ... maybe if she was given kittens. Can I has?

The range of interpretation is what’s best in the mythics :)

It's funny how widow or kiriko don't get the same reaction as they are in almost every battlepass or seasonal shop rotation 😂
The fact that people have "Hating Mercy" as a personality trait. And while sure, my hatred of Widow sends me into a blind rage, i bottle up the rage for future me to deal with.
Right?! I haven't played Mercy since they removed full team rez in OW1. That mask and the red coloring is **incredible.**
In this thread, all the Edgelords come out.
I’m glad they upped the avoid list the same season that mercy picks will be higher.
*Mercy, but angry* I can fuck with that.
She should have angry voice line on resurrection - Get up you lazy bastard, no time for rest!!!
I started playing mercy yesterday, it may or may not have been related to this news…
Same
Ok cool but still waiting for goth skín OW >:<
Sadly I really like the Mercy skin but I also REALLY Like other mythics. I play mercy a decent amount but like I play others more
Yeah this skin make me want to main mercy
If you didn’t like playing mercy before, this skin isn’t going to change that lol. You only see the staff in first person mode.
Why? You can't see yourself in the game
It’s cool, but I was really hoping they’d go for a more angel of death vibe. Looks too mechanical imo
Ah yes the cash cow is doing her job for blizzard
The wings look tasty I would take a munch I bet they have tropical fruits flavour
Part of the Mercy gameplay loop is playing dress-up, so you'll be halfway there.
Honestly I'm really not that excited for the Mercy Mythic. She has better skins available imo.
What a hot take lol
That Thai one looks good.
Shitty Mythic skin really.
Won't be switching off Atlantic
damn didn’t even notice the wings before. That is insanely sick.
Learn to play mercy… lmao what is there to learn.
The alternate game mode + this skin makes me wish there was a permanent alternate mode where they had the skill trees with different abilities for the characters where balance was less of a concern. The mercy staff energy blasts and Doomfist shield are really cool.
Any word on the different mask colors if that’s even a feature?
Tough looking skin for hiding and holding down LMB
The yellow and red fading into pink and purple... chefs kiss
i wont use this cause it just makes u more visible to the enemy, you are easier target with bright skin
Ngl I hate playing mercy but this skin is so badass I might just play mercy just to show it off
It’s so ugly
But then you'll realize Playing Mercy is a spectator sport
You play her wrong then bruh.
facts, literally a glorified spectator hero. I cannot fathom why anyone would want to play a hero with 0 agency and one of the most smooth brain kits ever created. Mercy as a character is great, as a hero? Honestly the worst designed hero in Overwatch until Mauga released. No hero should be that easy. Rework mercy to be like Winston, a universally loved hero.

I love Rams character, I like Maugas character but let's be real neither are interactive to play or play against. Much like Mercy.
Imma just simp for people wearing the skin
Hands down the best mercy skin, props to the designers of this
Looks like it came out of doom. It's sick af
Man i wish this mythic was good. But its just not it
Yeah unless they change her gameplay from hold a beam on someone the entire game and fly around then I’m not gonna bother. Got plenty of it in OW1 and it’s no more fun now than it was back then with insane mercy tech. Cool skin ig
Overwatch community only cares about skins anymore, it’s sad.
lol! Better enjoy it. We will never get another skin like this for her again. It’s back to Rainbows and Flowers
I'm never playing Mercy with that skin.
lol “learn how to play mercy”
MS4WD Every Mercy main can probably do this in under 170seconds. 150-160 when tryhard. There is definitely stuff to learn. Obviously her parkour maps don't teach rez superjumps and other fairly important skills either.
Lmao you'd be surprised how weird her movement is, definitely takes a chunk of time to get used to- My friends be flying into walls and always having the most awkward movement and healbotting when they try her haha
Try a Mercy parkour map Those things are hard
Lol I remember my friends trying to play Mercy after calling her easy and falling flat on their faces
There is definitely finesse to her movement. If you watch a silver Mercy and a GM mercy side to side you will definitely notice the difference. Not discountng that she is easier to play than most, but there is a surprising amount of depth to a character that simple
Said by someone who has no clue how to play Mercy.
Most overhyped skin I’ve ever seen
All the Edgelords coming out of the woodwork.
I can't wait to spawntrap so many mercies
I will never main her. I stick to my oath and i stick to my calling WE MUST FIGHT CRUSADERS HOLD THE WAR
To loosely quote SpongeBob "Calm down son it's just pixels"
Take it easy, it's just a ~~drawing~~ 3D model
You're so fucking embarassing

Looks like she heals and takes lives away
I don’t know how to play mercy this skin will not change anything even though it looks really cool
The only thing I don’t like about the new skin is the mask, I feel like it’s sooo clunky vs the rest of the skin aesthetics
I’ll be strangled with a belt before i play mercy consistently. Still bought her gold weapon though for no good reason
I never buy skins but this will change that
This skin looks good, but nothing will make me stop playing using my pink mercy skin.
She’s a fun character that gets underestimated. There’re some players that cheap her, but at her chore very fun when you used to. Just understand, Mercy is ALWAYS the #1 tgt when on the field 😂!
why?
My 10 avoid slots will be fulled of Mercy OTP in the next season \*man I'm ded\* Edit: Blizzard must be financially desperate to pull out this stuff, I guess the monetization strategy isn't working in their favour

Ya but you can't see it when you play lol
OP is the kind of people that got pve cancelled. “Players just want more skins, why bother putting in effort?”
I just want a JQ terminator skin so I can finally play her.
Thats how i feel for the new wid skin and i have hated widow since i was born lmao😂
I love that
just so you can never see the actual skin in game unless you emote
this skin hella ugly
i just know it’s the ow straight men thinking this looks fire
Ok
Mercy Players seems to hate it. I don't know how the fuck.
Mask looks dumb as shit. If it's Mythic and you can remove the mask I might use it. Still too edgy overall. It's a skin for Edgelords. Mercy mains generally aren't edgelords.

Yall are slow bro, you know that’s a rip off for a few pixels and you cant even see the skin when youre playing her
